Connor Bedard Sets Up Two Goals in Overtime Win
Chicago Blackhawks forward Connor Bedard recorded two assists in Monday's 3-2 overtime victory against the Utah Mammoth. He assisted Andrew Burakovsky on a game-tying goal in the second period and added his second helper when Frank Nazar scored in overtime. With his 44th career multi-point game, Bedard tied Denis Savard for the most by a Blackhawks player at age 20 or younger. At the same time, he broke Eddie Olczyk's franchise record for most assists by a player aged 20 or younger. Bedard reached 117 career assists on Monday night. He's had 34 helpers this season, along with 26 goals in 51 games. The Mammoth will hope to do a better job containing Bedard in Thursday's rematch.

Ivica Zubac Still Sidelined as Pacers Face Kings
Indiana Pacers center Ivica Zubac (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup against the Kings as he continues recovering from a sprained left ankle that has delayed his debut with the team. The Pacers remain thin in the frontcourt, especially with Pascal Siakam (knee) also sidelined. Jay Huff should continue handling starting center duties after posting 16 points, six rebounds, and five blocks in 22 minutes during the last game against Portland. Jarace Walker (ankle) could also maintain a large role if cleared to play after producing 14 points and two steals in 31 minutes, while Micah Potter remains a deeper-league option.

Erik Gudbranson to Miss Three-Game Road Trip
Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Erik Gudbranson (upper body) won't join the team for an upcoming three-game road trip, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports. The veteran blue-liner sustained an upper-body injury in Monday's loss to the Los Angeles Kings. Columbus begins its trip on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning and will return home after Saturday's matchup with the Philadelphia Flyers. Gudbranson has missed most of the 2025-26 campaign due to a hip injury. He has featured in 21 games, recording three points (one goal, two assists), 19 shots, 29 blocks, 27 hits, and a plus-six rating. Egor Zamula and Jake Christiansen are the candidates to replace Gudbranson.

Kel'el Ware in Danger of Missing Tuesday's Game
Miami Heat forward/center Kel'el Ware (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Wizards due to a right shoulder strain. The young big has been available regularly since late January, so this marks a new concern for Miami's frontcourt depth. If Ware sits, Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Myron Gardner could see expanded roles. Jaquez logged 29 minutes in the team's last game against Detroit, producing 19 points, six rebounds, and seven assists, while Gardner started but played just 17 minutes with four points and six rebounds. Vladislav Goldin could also pick up limited minutes but remains a risky fantasy option.

Evander Kane Dealing With Upper-Body Injury
Vancouver Canucks left wing Evander Kane is nursing an upper-body injury, head coach Adam Foote revealed on Monday. The veteran forward missed Monday's morning skate and didn't play in Vancouver's 2-0 loss to the Ottawa Senators. After sitting out the entire 2024-25 regular season, Kane has been relatively healthy this term and missed only his third game of the campaign on Monday night. He has recorded 27 points (11 goals, 16 assists), 146 shots, and 102 hits in 61 outings. With Kane sidelined, Curtis Douglas made his Canucks debut on Monday but logged less than seven minutes of ice time.

Max Greyserman Gradually Improving Each Week in Florida
Max Greyserman is letting the results do the talking. The American golfer netted his first Top 20 result of the season at the Arnold Palmer Invitational (T-18). One of his biggest weaknesses is driver accuracy. Greyserman had 10 events where that accuracy was 10% or more lower than the rest of the field. Sometimes, the golfer overcomes it but most times he does not. Last week, he gained 1.93 strokes to putting at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Greyserman may need a similar effort this week just to be a birdie or DFS possibility. The problem is can the golfer keep putts to an absolute minimum. He averages 27.95 putts per round and needs to be in order to have a chance at TPC Sawgrass.

Oliver Moore Expected to Miss "Significant Time"
Chicago Blackhawks center Oliver Moore (lower body) is expected to miss "significant time," Brian Sandalow of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. The rookie forward suffered a lower-body injury in Sunday's loss to the Dallas Stars. Moore has appeared in 51 games this season, notching 19 points (five goals, 14 assists). He was replaced in the lineup by Sam Lafferty on Monday against Utah. With little time remaining in the season, Moore might be done for the rest of the year.

The Nico Echavarria Roller Coaster Heads to The Players Championship
Nico Echavarria keeps trying to play through the consistency issues. The Colombian golfer shows flashes of brilliance combined with calamitous results. Echavarria has two top 10 efforts including a win at the Cognizant Classic. When he is on, he is on. Pebble Beach showed his ability to avoid bogeys and missed shots. Numbers are all over the place when it comes to the golfer but he has gained 1.81 strokes putting over the previous two PGA events. Working around the greens has been more erratic with Echavarria not excelling at sand saves and scrambling (170th and 139th respectively). TPC Sawgrass is famous for the inevitable bunker shots and chip shots as much as the 17th hole. Echavarria might be too volatile from a DFS standpoint.

Andrew Wiggins Misses Third Straight Game
Miami Heat forward Andrew Wiggins (toe) has been ruled out for Tuesday's encounter with the Washington Wizards. He is nursing a left big toe injury and will sit out a third consecutive contest. The Heat have used Myron Gardner as Wiggins' replacement in the starting unit, but he hasn't had a big impact in games. Over the last two contests, Gardner has averaged 5.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in 16.0 minutes. Wiggins will get his next chance to return on Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Ludvig Aberg a Threat to Contend at The Players Championship
Ludvig Aberg did not have the best start to the 2026 season. The Swedish golfer had an injury impact his play but since the calendar turned to February, his form has returned. That culminated in a T-3 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational last week. Aberg has been closing well in events with a 67-66-67 over his past three final rounds. Driving distance is vital but the accuracy is key. Last week, Aberg was 15% more accurate compared to the rest of the field. At TPC Sawgrass, it is vital that the golfer avoid errant tee shots. This is something that holds Aberg back. Aberg is a solid betting wager if not for a win but at least a Top 10 or even Top 5.

Norman Powell Remains Out Tuesday
Miami Heat guard/forward Norman Powell (groin) will sit out a sixth consecutive game on Tuesday night against the Washington Wizards. He is on the shelf with a groin strain and remains without a timetable for his return. Pelle Larsson, Dru Smith, and Jaime Jaquez Jr. have picked up more work during Powell's absence. Meanwhile, Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo are responsible for most of the offense, especially with Andrew Wiggins (toe) also out of the lineup. The Heat have a great fantasy matchup on Tuesday against a team that allows 120.5 points per 100 possessions.

Collin Sexton Considered Questionable Tuesday
Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (leg) is questionable to play on Tuesday night against the Golden State Warriors. He injured his left leg on Sunday against Sacramento and might be unavailable for the first time since making his Bulls debut on Feb. 7. Sexton has been a great fit in Chicago and led his team in scoring for four consecutive games. If Sexton can't play on Tuesday, Rob Dillingham is expected to absorb many of his minutes, but he still isn't an appealing fantasy option, even with an expanded role.

Matas Buzelis Expected to Play Tuesday
Chicago Bulls forward Matas Buzelis (ankle) is considered probable for Tuesday's matchup with the Golden State Warriors. The talented sophomore sprained his right ankle last week but missed only one game. He was back in action on Sunday against Sacramento, notching 20 points, eight rebounds, four assists, and three blocks. Buzelis has enjoyed a significantly larger role on offense during the second half of the season, scoring at least 20 points in four of his last five outings. He has also been a force on the glass, averaging 6.8 boards during that stretch.

Josh Giddey Probable Tuesday
Chicago Bulls point guard Josh Giddey (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's contest against the Golden State Warriors. Giddey injured his right ankle last week, but he returned to the lineup on Sunday against Sacramento and appears ready to play on Tuesday night. Health issues have left a mark on Giddey's season, but he has looked like his usual self again in recent games. Over his last three appearances, Giddey has recorded two triple-doubles, averaging 16.3 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 9.7 assists.

Coby White Sits Out First Game of Back-to-Back
Charlotte Hornets guard Coby White (calf) won't be in the lineup on Tuesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. The explosive guard is managing a left calf injury and hasn't played in both games during a back-to-back set. He will likely rejoin the lineup on Wednesday night against the Sacramento Kings. Since moving to Charlotte, White has averaged 12.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in 18.3 minutes. Sion James and Josh Green will split the available minutes on Tuesday night, but they aren't expected to have a major impact.

Andrew Nembhard Doubtful Tuesday
Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (back, neck) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's matchup with the Sacramento Kings. Nembhard has recently played through back and neck issues, but all signs point to him sitting out Tuesday's action. Pascal Siakam (knee) has already been ruled out for the game, so Indiana will likely be without its two offensive leaders. This will give players like Jarace Walker, Kobe Brown, and Quenton Jackson a chance to make a bigger impact. Jackson and Kam Jones are the candidates to fill in for Nembhard in the starting lineup.

Pascal Siakam Won't Suit Up Tuesday
Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (knee) will sit out Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Siakam recently missed time due to a wrist problem, and he's now on the injury report with a knee sprain. In Siakam's absence, Kobe Brown could slide into the starting lineup. Additionally, Jarace Walker is set to carry a heavier offensive load. In games played without Siakam this season, Walker has averaged 16.4 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 3.4 assists. His fantasy stock will rise further on Tuesday due to the opposition's lack of quality.

Chiefs to Bring Back Tyquan Thornton
The Kansas City Chiefs are re-signing wide receiver Tyquan Thornton to a two-year, $11 million deal that includes a maximum value of $14 million, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL.com. Thornton is a former second-round pick of the New England Patriots, but he joined the Chiefs prior to the 2025 season. Throughout the year, he caught 19 of his 37 targets for 438 yards and three touchdowns. These aren't otherworldly numbers, but he was consistent enough to both establish himself within the Chiefs' depth chart and also earn a new deal to come back for 2026 and beyond. Fantasy managers should temper expectations on Thornton, though, at least for the time being. He peaked at WR81 in PPR leagues (last year) and will have a tough time cracking the top 75 in both dynasty startup and redraft leagues during 2026.

Titans Sign Alontae Taylor to Three-Year Deal
The Tennessee Titans have signed free-agent cornerback Alontae Taylor to a three-year, $60 million contract that includes $42 million fully guaranteed, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Taylor represents another major splash on the first day of the tampering window for the Titans, who also reportedly agreed to terms with wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson and defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers. Across 16 games (15 starts) in 2025, Taylor racked up two interceptions, 11 passes defended, two sacks, and 83 tackles. It's exciting to see defensive-minded head coach Robert Saleh go out and invest so much money into the defense this early in March. Titans fans and fantasy managers should be excited about the team's 2026 defense with Franklin-Myers and Taylor already signed, and surely even more moves yet to come.

John Franklin-Myers Inks Three-Year Deal With Titans
The Tennessee Titans have signed defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers to a three-year, $63 million contract, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL.com. Franklin-Myers was a fourth-round pick in 2018, and he has enjoyed breakout years with both the New York Jets and Denver Broncos. Most recently, in 2025, he was a Bronco, racking up 7.5 sacks and 25 tackles across 16 games (15 starts). He has a pre-existing connection to current Titans head coach Robert Saleh, who was also his head coach with the Jets. $21 million per year is a hefty payday for someone who has never tallied eight sacks in a single season, but he was reportedly the Titans' top target in free agency, and they had to beat out the San Francisco 49ers in a bidding war to get him.

Anton Forsberg Escapes With Overtime Victory
Los Angeles Kings goaltender Anton Forsberg stopped 28 of 32 shots on goal in Monday's 5-4 overtime victory against the Blue Jackets. Forsberg received plenty of goal support in the contest to secure the two points for the Kings, who are just outside of the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference playoff race. Forsberg has posted an 11-9-5 record to go along with two shutouts, a 2.74 goals against average, and a .903 save percentage on the season, but he is mainly a streaming option for fantasy purposes.

Commanders, Odafe Oweh Agree to Four-Year Deal
The Washington Commanders have signed free-agent edge rusher Odafe Oweh to a four-year, $100 million contract that includes $68 million guaranteed, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Oweh spent his first 4.5 NFL seasons with the Baltimore Ravens before being acquired by the Los Angeles Chargers during the 2025 regular season. He appeared in 17 games last year, amassing 7.5 sacks, 18 quarterback hits, and 38 tackles. Over the last two seasons combined, he has recorded 17.5 sacks. Oweh will provide a key pass-rushing presence within a Commanders' defense that previously lacked starpower. He'll be tasked with slowing down some of the talented quarterbacks in Washington's division, including Dak Prescott, Jalen Hurts, and Jaxson Dart.

Jaelan Phillips Heads to Panthers on a Four-Year Deal
The Carolina Panthers have signed edge rusher Jaelan Phillips to a four-year, $120 million contract, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Phillips is a former first-round pick who spent 4.5 years in Miami before being dealt to the Philadelphia Eagles at the 2025 trade deadline. He was healthy for all 17 games last season and made a career-high 17 starts while amassing five sacks, 14 quarterback hits, 53 tackles, and two fumble recoveries. Giving Phillips such a lucrative contract reaffirms Carolina's desire to invest in its defense, just a few months after winning the NFC South and being eliminated in the first round of the NFL playoffs. Phillips will immediately fill an impact role on defense as the Panthers look to slow down the likes of Michael Penix Jr., Tyler Shough, and Baker Mayfield within their own division.

Raiders Sign Quay Walker, Nakobe Dean to Help Defense
The Las Vegas Raiders have made two key upgrades on defense, signing linebackers Quay Walker and Nakobe Dean, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL.com. Walker spent his first four NFL seasons in Green Bay, amassing 2.5 sacks and 128 total tackles in 2025. His new deal with Vegas pays him $40.5 million over three seasons, and it includes $28 million guaranteed. Meanwhile, Dean heads to the Raiders after four seasons in Philadelphia. Like Walker, he is also a member of the 2022 rookie linebacker class. He tallied 55 tackles and a career-high four sacks across 10 games (eight starts) in 2025. After a solid stint with the Eagles, he'll cash in and get $36 million over three years (with $20 million guaranteed) from the Raiders. It's an admirable effort from Vegas, which is looking to erase the misery of last year's last-place finish and improve both sides of the football under first-year head coach Klint Kubiak.

Tyler Linderbaum Joins Raiders on a Three-Year Deal
The Las Vegas Raiders have signed free-agent center Tyler Linderbaum to a three-year, $81 million deal that includes $60 million guaranteed, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. The contract makes Linderbaum the highest-paid interior offensive lineman in NFL history. Linderbaum is coming off an impressive stint with the Baltimore Ravens, including a strong 2025 season in which he posted an 80.2 PFF grade (fifth-best among centers) and an 83.7 PFF run blocking grade (fourth-best among centers). His departure is big news for the Ravens, who evidently weren't willing to match Vegas' offer to keep a key protector in the trenches. With the Raiders, Linderbaum will offer key blocking in front of running back Ashton Jeanty and this year's consensus No. 1 draft pick, quarterback Fernando Mendoza.

Harris English Hopes to Find Any Sort of Success at TPC Sawgrass
Despite his Southeastern roots and affinity for playing on Bermuda grass surfaces, Harris English has a downright putrid record at The Players Championship. In 12 career appearances, he has one top 20 finish to go along with seven missed cuts. The former Georgia Bulldog is a serviceable ball striker, but it isn't up to the level needed to compete on The Stadium Course. He ranks third on the season in strokes gained off the tee (+0.596), and ranks 13th in par-4 scoring average. If he is to make a run at this championship, he'll need to be sharper with his iron play and short game. But there is some value to be had here for guys playing for the perceived ceiling English has.
